How child play can assist in development

When you see your child play, as well as enjoying themselves, they are learning how to interact with other children or the environment. Child play is an essential part of growing up.

At Mentis XL we believe that child play can be directed towards providing a stimulating and rewarding educational experience.

We have produced a  programme to let your child play with you and at the same time develop many skills that they will need in later life.

Our programme is not based on reading, writing or arithmetic. Instead a structured series of programmes has been developed to encourage movement skills, thinking skills, social skills in children aged three to five.

The programme has been designed by an experienced Educational Psychologist with more than 20 years experience in the 'Early Years'.

On our website is information relating to this programme and a sample video showing the type of exercises we are trying to encourage parents to try.
